Bonn, Germany, Mar. 2.
West Germany sent the European Assembly a demand on Sunday for restoration of "democratic conditions" in the coal-rich Saar-centre of bitter. French-German dispute since World War I.

Washington, March 2.
The National Planning Association proposed to- day that the United States sponsor a "world revolu- tion" in land reform to wipe out poverty and block the "grandiose" Communist schemes to conquer under- developed areas of the earth.

Informants said the note calls un the Assembly and the Euro- pean Committee of Ministers to induce the Saar government in grant basic rights to

constitution forms the base of these demands, the sources said.
They said Chancellor Konrari Adenauer will present a copy to the Committee of Ministers
at their Parls meeting on March 10.
The Bonn government report- edly hopes another talk between Adenauer, und French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman on the thorny Saar question might develop at the Paris meeting. They had a discussion on the Issue at the London Foreign- Minister's conference two weeks ago and Schuman antiounced in Lisbon later that he had agreed
